The Profits of Base Ball.
From the Boston Herald.

| Many of the public are not aware how
great are the profits made from directing the
game of base ball as a business in some of
the cities of the country. For the amour. of
capital invested, there is probably nothing
like it in any form of amusement. The ex-
penses Of base ball are, first, in hiring and
| fitting up the grounds upon which it is played !;
next, in the salaries paid the players; third,
in the travelling expenses of the clubs. None
Of these require much preliminary outlay.
There must be guaranty as regards some
of them, but the game greatly more than
pays its way after the season opens. l. will
be singular if some enterprisng manager
outside of those who have at present a mo
nopoly of the cream of the business, does
not before long devise a method of breaking
it upon it. For base ball rightly managed
may be made more remunera.ive than the
drama, the corcert hall, or the sporting field
OF any kind.
Boston affords good example the present
year of what may be done in this way. There
will be about sixty three games of base ball
PLAYED in the league association during the
season, of which about twenty have already
been played. The attendance at them has
averaged fully 1000 people This, at fifty
cents ticket, yields considerably more than
50, 900 game, for there are reserved seats to
the amount of 1900 in number, at twenty
five and fifty cents each, the most of which
are generally sold, and there are perquisltes
of the grounds which bring in money. 1t 70
a low estimate to set down the receipts of the
season at $l25,000. Out of this are to be
taken, perhaps, 900 for salaries Of play
ers, 81, 800 for ground expenses, and a con.
siderable sum for the cost Of transporting the
pla, ers from one city to another. 1t will be
liberal to call this altogether, $50, 900. The
profits, therefore, that the season of five
months will represent, will be S75, 900.

The New York Evening Post once more
takes up the figures from the report of
the examiner of Maine Savings Banks
and seeks to turn them to the advantage
OF President Clevelaud's administration
This is simply folly. The prosperity of
the people of Maine is based on the sound
industrial policy inaugurated by the re-
publican party, the same policy which
President Cleveland sought to overthrow
in the last Congress. He is free trader
and the workiugmen whose earnings are
deposited in the Savings Ranks of the
country were arrayed in Washington
through their chosen representatives
against the very measure Mr.. Cleveland
used the full, force of his influence to enact
into law The laboring men have
nothing to expect from the Cleveland adj
ministration. should it ever be able to carry
out its free trade theories. Bangor Wig.

Thousands of Dead Fish
From the N. Y. Times.

In the southern part of Georgetown, S.
c., is large sheet of fresh water, known as
Dawho Lake. widely celebrated for its great
quantity of excellent fish of many varieties.
About ten days ago terrific storm of several
hours duration passed over that section,
doing great damage to growing crops and
beating large quantities of leaves and limbs
of trees into the lake. A few days after this
storm the fish in the lake began to appear by
thousands upon the surface of the water in a
dying condition, the number increasing
daily, until now the entire surface of the
lake is literally covered with dead fish.
The water of this lake has always been of a
whtish color, clear. soft. and pleasant to the
taste, but Immediately after the storm it be.
came as black as ink and liter as quinine,
in which condition it has since continued.
Alligators, cooters, and water motc sin snakes
were seen leaving the lake in large numbers.
1t is said that the fish would approach the
shore struggling as if anxious to get on the
land The stencil arising from the grea,
mass of decomposed fish is sickening, and
the buzzards are holding high carnival.
This strange phenomenon is attracting great
attention. and hundreds of persons are daily
visiting the scene. Dawho Lake is about
2 miles long, from 200 to 500 yards wide, and
varies in depth from 10 to 80 feet.

Although England has signed an agree
ment with the Sultan, binding herself to
evacuate Egypt in three years, if the con-
condition OF the country will warrant the
withdrawal of the troops at the expiration
of that time. she has not done so without
further conditions, which, when properly
considered. have the effect OF annulliug the
terms of the agreement, and of permitting
her to occupy the country as long as she
pleases. She has reserved the right to
reoccupv the country, either in coniunc-
ton with Turkey. or after due notice to
Turkey.if it should seem necessary; there
is hole left in this provision through
which she can easily crawl. and seeing it
very plainly, the other Powers. when
asked to endorse this arrangement, show
a decided disposition to oppose it. 1t is
evident that England can't have her own
way in Continental politics. so much in the
future as she has in the past.

The Biggest Nugget.
I From the Grass Valley (Cal. J, Unto

from the Grass Valley (Cal.), Union
Louis Banding says the generally accepted
statement that the largest nugget ever found
in California was worth little more than

J. Finn s, "Oid Virginia" found piece of
gold about six miles from Downieville. Ser
ra county, on Aug.2l. 1866, that weighed
5000 ounces. The god of that vicinity was
worth SIS per ounce. which would make the
value of the nugget $4,000 This would
make the Finney nugget the largest piece of
pure gold ever discovered, so far as accounts
20 Heretofore the Australian nugget, found
in the Ballsrat gold fields, has been consid-
cred the largest. 1t was valued at $50, 900.
Finney, or "Old Virginia" as he was famil
isrly called in those DAYS, afterward went to
Washoe when the great silver discoveries
were made there, and from him the town Of

Chicago was treated to quite sensa'
ton this week. A witness swore in court
that he paid the boodler McGarigle fifteen
hundred dollars as bride. The evidence
will convict the defendant. But the sur
prise was caused by the audacty of the
witness in giving such direct and positive
evidence. Chicago needs some more
witnesses of this kind. The scarcity of
them heretofore has proved very great
obstruction to the proper administration

1t is stated that the Vassar girls have
eaten during the past year $4,000 pounds
of fresh meats; 5000 pounds Of smoked
meats; nearly 5000 pounds of turkeys ;
over 4 900 pounds of chickens; nearly 4.
900 pounds of fish; $4,000 clans; 141

$4,000 pounds of butter; $4,000 quarts of

1000 bushels of potatoes, and 1000

are evidently healthy. Although they
may have concluded rightly in this case,
it does not always follow that it is a safe
deduction in all cases.

The FARMERS REVIEW"
PubliIhes Reports OF the Crops
From All Sc otIOns of b Mid
die States.

Chicago, ILL.,, March 27.-The
Farmers Review prints for their crop
review this week the following sum
mary: Dry weather continues to pre-
vail in Kansas and in portions OF Mis-
souri,, which has caused come injury
to winter wheat, though very few
serious reports of damage, except in
the former State. In Ssdgwick and
some Of the other southern counties
of Kansas there has been very little
iain since last August. In AtchisoD,
Franklin, Shawnee and Smith coun-
ties the fields lack moisture and the
grain has air ally bsen injured by
droutb. In Chase and Republic coun-
ties the winter wheat is a'so reported
az locking poorly, while in Neosho,
Marshall and Saline counties the pros.
poets are favorable. In Hclt and
Daviess counties, of Missouri, the
ground is very dry and some injury is
reported in the last named county.
The tenor OF the reports from Mis-
souri, however, ia still favorable for
the crop. The Illinois reports con-
tinue to be favorable and the outlook
is still regarded as very favorable for
q full average crop. Some iniuIy is
reported firm Pope and Jefferson
counties of Illinois. Some OF the
northwestern and southern clunties
of Michigan report damages, and the
average for Ihe State is below that OF
the preceding two years for this
month. The reports from Wisconsin
are nearly all Of q favorable tenor,
though injury is reported in Colum'
bia and q lew other interior counties.
The reports from Indiana are equally
divided aI indicating fair to good pros;
poets. In Noble, SeIe ca and
Trumbuil counties the prospects Tor
